COURSE INFORMATION

Context

The context of business and management has undergone rapid and profound changes within the last decade. No longer can the study of business and management be confined to the functional and technical areas, as was the tendency in the past. Moreover, business and management practitioners must now manage and be accountable for the substantial impact of their activities not only on internal members, financial stakeholders and customers, but also on members of the immediate community, on society as a whole, and on the environment. There is an urgent need to advance the state of business and management knowledge to reflect these new realities.

Aware of these developments and guided by Lasallian values, De La Salle University aims for the creation and dissemination of practice-oriented management knowledge that will help uplift society. In pursuit of this mission, the Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) Program is designed to advance the professional development of practicing managers, entrepreneurs, management academics and other professionals in the business and public management arena by: expanding their knowledge and perspectives in critical areas of management related to promoting humanistic, socially responsible and sustainable business; and equipping them with research and change management skills.

Master of Science in Computer Science (MSCS)

Master of Science in Computer Science

The Master of Science in Computer Science (MSCS) program of the College of Computer Studies is a two-year post-graduate course designed to train students in undertaking high-level research in the advanced field of computing. In the course of the program students develop a rigorous and deeper understanding of the theoretical and underlying principles of computation in the areas of programming languages, computer architecture, operating systems, algorithms and complexity, automata, and intelligent systems. By engaging students to work in research laboratories, they are further equipped with technical project management skills to lead in the advancement of computer science research. The program makes extensive use of published research papers and journals to encourage students to develop new or adapt existing algorithms, and to explore their innovative applications in various domains. These heavily rely upon independent research by students, and provide opportunities to integrate theories and disseminate research results to local and international audiences.

Students coming from non-CS and non-IT academic backgrounds who wish to take the program are prepared through a series of remedial courses. Candidates’ understanding of the theories in computing, and their proficiency and style in written and oral communicate are primarily attested to by the successful completion and defense of a master’s thesis.

The program is an appropriate preparation for those aspiring to discover new approaches to solving a computing problem, and to adapt existing technology to new application areas; for those seeking a career in the dynamic field of computing; and for those intending to develop their skills in conducting research and further studies at the doctoral level.

Diploma in Development Economics

The Diploma Program in Development Economics (DE) provides a way to emphasize key economic principles and ideas that are primarily designed to appeal to those who engage in and are largely familiar with economic and developmental policies. Introducing a revitalized curriculum at this time gives the School of Economics the opportunity to infuse new theories and techniques and articulate key issues and problems affecting the country’s state of economic development. The revitalized curriculum is expected to strengthen the students’ analytical and communication skills.

The DE program is under a memorandum of understanding with the Crawford School of the Australian National University (ANU), forged in 2016.

Students who successfully complete the Diploma in Development Economics at DLSU  with an average grade of 3, or higher, will receive a Diploma in Development Economics from DLSU and will be granted entry into the ANU Crawford School to study another year for one of the Nominated Degrees: Master of Environmental and Resource Economics (MERE) or Master of International and Development Economics (MIDEC).

​DLSU students will be required to complete the normal ANU application form and provide the necessary supporting documentation. The final decision on admission to ANU will rest with ANU. Students who satisfactorily complete the course requirements of their nominated degree at the ANU Crawford School will be provided with certification that they have completed the required courses and awarded the corresponding ANU degree.
